Today, Fedora 11 will be unleashed upon the web. The release has been postponed for a few days, but this time it's for real. It comes packed with lots of changes, such as improved boot time, Nouveau as the default NVIDIA driver, and of course the latest and greatest version of various open source packages.

I don't agree with you. The default theme is very good as it combines usability with beauty. The icons looks the same as usual so people don't need to relearn, the background is nice with no distinct details that makes filenames or icons hard to read or see. Yet the background have some subtle details that can serve as landmarks.
